Gets the short end of the fight stick

Punch that a-hole


Tough Guy

I love a lot of their music, even though it's trying too hard at times to be dark.

Glenny is a unique front man, but I just do not think I would personally like him (not the first). I have never seen a Danzig show. Anyone seen one?

Dude is not nearly as cool and important as he thinks he is. That big dude dropping his arse is an all-time favorite for me.

Haven't listened to him in a long time but I enjoyed his first few albums.

Still love Danzig Misfits, but also love Graves Misfits.

I love the Misfits and have the box set, but Glenn is an a-hole.

Love Danzig. His voice is eerily similar to Jim Moorison's which I love.

Weird. Everything I've read over the years went to great lengths to paint Danzig as one of the nicest guys in metal.

I was a huge Misfits fan growing up, even have a super trashy Misfits tattoo. Danzig has always been a bitch.

Loved the orginal misfits.

Danzig still plays on his tough guy image, even though he's old.

Talented artist too.

Agreed. He and Ian Astbury (The Cult) both sound very similar to Morrison.

They can certainly try to paint him as a nice guy, but he's notorious for being a douche.

Lucifuge and How the Gods Kill are aces. I also love his stuff with Samhain.

I've heard a lot of stories about what an a-hole he is, but I do have one anecdotal example to the contrary. Some good friends of mine saw him back in the late 90s. They went about back to the loading dock area and saw him just sitting around. They smoked a joint with him and shot the shite with him for almost an hour while the crew loaded the gear. They said he was super cool and amiable and was very gracious to them.

Guess some people aren't always dickheads, even though you have to admit he hasn't gotten that reputation for nothing.

In 2004, I was once mistaken for Marilyn Manson at scarlet's on bourbon street. I figured out what was going on, played it up and got free drinks and private dances.

People probably think Manson was gracious and easy going too.

Glenn is a jerk, but at least he's not Jerry Only.

Misfits are better than the Ramones

I don't care if he's a douche. He makes good music.

ETA: I have read some IRL accounts of him where he was a cool guy. Same with ROllins.
